PayPal Express Checkout Shipping Address should not be editable - paypal

Question

I have already spent a lot of hours to find an answer for my problem but unfortunately i can't find a soloution.
I implement PayPal (Express Checkout) in our Shop-System. In our shop, the customer enters his shipping address. I don't want the customer to get the option to change his shipping address in PayPal. I only want the shipping address to be displayed which was entered before.
For example, here is an express checkout implementation like I want it:
Shipping Address only displayed:
How can i make this possible?
I use the PayPalSDK for ASP.NET

In your SetExpressCheckout request you can add the ADDROVERRIDE parameter and set its value to 1. Then make sure to include the shipping address parameters in your SEC request as well.
What this will do is simply display the address you pass over to PayPal without the ability for the user to change it.
The value 1 indiciates that the PayPal pages should display the
shipping address set by you in the SetExpressCheckout request, not the
shipping address on file with PayPal. This does not allow the
customer to edit the address here. Must be 1 or 0
